Use .gitignore File to Filter Project

[shane_at]

Often, projects correspond with repositories, and in my case that's a git repository. The project filtering options are kind of limited and manual. It would be helpful if you could specify a file containing ignore patterns. Git repos use a file to specify ignores, and I think Subversion and Mercurial do, too, so many users would not need to create the file. An example of the file format (for git) follows.

Code: Select all

node_modules/*

build/*

.idea/*

coverage/*

coverage-json/*

.DS_Store

public/.DS_Store

public/modules/*/*.css

public/modules/*/*/*.css

public/modules/*/js/*.min.js

*~

sftp-config.json

config.json

*.iml

web.sublime-workspace

xvfb.pid

config/app.yml

public/vendor/*

npm-debug.log

ngdocs/*

A big +1 for this request. There should be an option to respect version control system ignore files in project views. This seems so obviously useful, I'm surprised it's not supported already.
